DISPENSADOR INTELIGENTE DE GEL DESINFECTANTE PARA CONEXION A SISTEMA DE MONITORIZACION DE HABITOS DE DESINFECCIONSMART DISINFECTING GEL DISPENSER FOR CONNECTION TO DISINFECTION ROOM MONITORING SYSTEM

Campo de la tecnicaTechnique Field

La presente invention concierne a un dispensador inteligente de gel desinfectante para conexion a sistema de monitorizacion de habitos de desinfeccion, estando el citado dispensador previsto para ser instalado en instalaciones sanitarias como hospitales o centros ambulatorios para la correcta y frecuente desinfeccion del personal sanitario, evitando la transmision de enfermedades infecciosas entre pacientes o al propio personal sanitario.The present invention concerns an intelligent disinfectant gel dispenser for connection to the monitoring system of disinfection habits, said dispenser being intended to be installed in sanitary facilities such as hospitals or outpatient centers for the correct and frequent disinfection of sanitary personnel, avoiding transmission of infectious diseases among patients or to health personnel themselves.

Estado de la tecnicaState of the art

Son conocidos los dispensadores de gel desinfectante que dosifican cantidades de gel desinfectante permitiendo una rapida y eficiente desinfeccion de manos sin requerir del uso de agua, jabon ni medios para un posterior secado de las manos, que podrian producir una nueva contaminacion de las manos.Disinfectant gel dispensers that dispense amounts of disinfectant gel are known allowing rapid and efficient hand disinfection without requiring the use of water, soap or means for subsequent drying of the hands, which could produce a new contamination of the hands.

Normalmente se trata de dispensadores fijados a la pared que incluyen un pulsador que proporciona una dosis al ser pulsado. Sin embargo esta solution conocida no permite un control sobre quien, cuando y cuantas veces se ha desinfectado las manos, impidiendo hacer un seguimiento y corregir actitudes temerarias en lo que a desinfeccion se refiere, siendo este aspecto especialmente relevante en entornos hospitalarios o geriatricos, donde las infecciones pueden ser transferidas entre los pacientes por el personal sanitario sin querer, al no realizar correctamente la desinfeccion en los momentos adecuados.Normally these are wall-mounted dispensers that include a push button that provides a dose when pressed. However, this known solution does not allow control over who, when and how many times the hands have been disinfected, preventing follow-up and correct reckless attitudes regarding disinfection, this aspect being especially relevant in hospital or geriatric settings, where Infections can be transferred among patients by health workers unintentionally, by not properly disinfecting at appropriate times.

Se conocen tambien dispensadores automaticos de jabon que proporcionan automaticamente una dosis de jabon al detectar la presencia de una mano.Automatic soap dispensers are also known which automatically provide a dose of soap upon detecting the presence of a hand.

Ninguno de los dispositivos conocidos permite un control sobre los habitos de desinfeccion de sus usuarios.None of the known devices allows control over the disinfection habits of its users.

Se entendera que el mencionado gel desinfectante sera un producto con propiedades bactericidas y que preferiblemente sera un producto de evaporacion rapida, como por ejemplo productos con una base de alcohol, evitando el tener que secarse las manos tras la desinfeccion.It will be understood that said disinfectant gel will be a product with bactericidal properties and that it will preferably be a product of rapid evaporation, such as products with an alcohol base, avoiding having to dry hands after disinfection.

El dispensador propuesto incluye una carcasa que soporta:The proposed dispenser includes a housing that supports:

• al menos un deposito de gel desinfectante;• at least one deposit of disinfectant gel;

• una boquilla dispensadora de gel desinfectante conectada a dicho deposito de gel desinfectante;• a disinfectant gel dispensing nozzle connected to said disinfectant gel reservoir;

• un dispositivo dosificador conectado a dicho deposito y/o a dicha boquilla dispensadora y configurado para dispensar una cantidad pre-definida de gel desinfectante a traves de dicha boquilla dispensadora;• a dosing device connected to said reservoir and / or said dispensing nozzle and configured to dispense a pre-defined amount of disinfectant gel through said dispensing nozzle;

• un dispositivo accionador conectado al dispositivo dosificador para su accionamiento produciendo la dispensacion de la cantidad pre-definida de gel desinfectante;• an actuator device connected to the dosing device for actuation producing the dispensing of the pre-defined amount of disinfectant gel;

Asi pues el dispositivo accionador permite accionar el dispositivo dosificador, el cual asegura que la cantidad de gel desinfectante dosificada es la misma siempre y que sea una cantidad suficiente para una desinfeccion eficaz. El gel desinfectante es dosificado desde el al menos un deposito a traves de la boquilla dispensadora.Thus, the actuator device allows the dosing device to be operated, which ensures that the amount of disinfectant gel dosed is the same as long as it is an amount sufficient for effective disinfection. The disinfectant gel is dosed from the at least one reservoir through the dispensing nozzle.

El citado dispositivo dosificador puede ser de muy distintas naturalezas, por ejemplo puede constar de un embolo de una medida pre-definida que se llena con gel desinfectante tras cada dispensacion y que al accionarse el dispositivo accionador colapsa y se vada a traves de la boquilla dispensadora. Alternativamente la dispensacion puede producirse comprimiendo de un modo controlado, mediante una superficie de presion, el deposito que es flexible reduciendo su volumen de forma controlada provocando la salida de una cantidad regulada de gel desinfectante. Otras realizaciones pueden contemplar introducir aire a presion dentro del contenedor y/o regular la abertura y cierre de la boquilla dispensadora de forma controlada mediante una valvula para regular el flujo de gel desinfectante dispensado, siendo dicha valvula accionada mediante el dispositivo accionador.The said dosing device can be of very different natures, for example it can consist of a plunger of a pre-defined measure that is filled with disinfectant gel after each dispensation and that when the actuator device is operated collapses and leaves through the dispensing nozzle . Alternatively, the dispensing can be produced by compressing in a controlled manner, by means of a pressure surface, the reservoir that is flexible by reducing its volume in a controlled manner causing the output of a regulated amount of disinfectant gel. Other embodiments may contemplate introducing pressurized air into the container and / or regulating the opening and closing of the dispensing nozzle in a controlled manner by means of a valve to regulate the flow of disinfectant gel dispensed, said valve being actuated by the actuator device.

La presente invencion propone ademas, de un modo no conocido por anteriores documentos, que el dispensador incluya ademas:The present invention also proposes, in a manner not known by previous documents, that the dispenser also includes:

• un dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario que recoge datos identificativos de usuario;• a user recognition device that collects user identification data;

• un dispositivo comunicador;• a communicating device;

• un dispositivo electronico conectado a dicho dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario y a dicho dispositivo comunicador, estando el dispositivo electronico configurado para transmitir al menos los datos identificativos de usuario y datos identificativos del dispensador a un dispositivo de computation integrante de un sistema de monitorizacion de habitos de desinfeccion;• an electronic device connected to said user recognition device and said communicating device, the electronic device being configured to transmit at least the user identification data and identification data of the dispenser to a computing device integral to a habit monitoring system of disinfection;

de modo que dicho dispositivo de computacion pueda procesar dichos datos identificativos de usuario transmitidos vinculandolos al dispensador individual transmisor de dichos datos identificativos a traves de los datos identificativos de dispensador, diferenciando dichos datos identificativos de usuario de otros datos identificativos de otros usuario transmitidos desde otros dispensadores, permitiendo determinar los habitos de desinfeccion de cada usuario individualmente.so that said computing device can process said transmitted user identification data by linking them to the individual transmitter of said identification data through the dispenser identification data, differentiating said user identification data from other user identification data transmitted from other dispensers , allowing to determine the disinfection habits of each user individually.

Se entendera que un dispositivo electronico sera un dispositivo que integrara una memoria y con una capacidad de calculo necesaria para ejecutar funciones de automatismos y/o control. Ejemplos de un dispositivo electronico puede ser un controlador logico programable, un ordenador u otro dispositivo similar. Se contempla tambien que dicho dispositivo electronico sea local, parcial o totalmente remoto respecto al dispensador.It will be understood that an electronic device will be a device that integrates a memory and with a calculation capacity necessary to execute automation and / or control functions. Examples of an electronic device can be a programmable logic controller, a computer or other similar device. It is also contemplated that said electronic device be local, partially or totally remote from the dispenser.

Asi pues el dispensador propuesto permitira identificar un usuario mediante el dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario integrado en el dispensador, permitiendo asi tener un control preciso de cuando y a quien se ha suministrado gel desinfectante desde un dispensador espedfico.Thus, the proposed dispenser will allow the identification of a user by means of the user recognition device integrated in the dispenser, thus allowing precise control of when and to whom disinfectant gel has been supplied from a specific dispenser.

Preferiblemente la dispensation de gel desinfectante no esta restringida solo a usuarios que se hayan identificado a traves del dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario, permitiendo asi que todo usuario que lo requiera pueda suministrarse una dosis de gel desinfectante, sin embargo se considera que los usuarios habituales tendran el incentivo de identificarse para obtener un registro de habitos de desinfeccion favorable.Preferably, the disinfectant gel dispensation is not restricted only to users who have identified themselves through the user recognition device, thus allowing any user who requires it to be able to supply a dose of disinfectant gel, however it is considered that the habitual users will have the incentive to identify yourself to obtain a record of favorable disinfection habits.

Se contempla sin embargo como posibilidad alternativa que el dispensador suministre gel desinfectante solo a usuarios identificados.However, it is contemplated as an alternative possibility that the dispenser supplies disinfectant gel only to identified users.

Se propone que el dispensador pueda incluir ademas un reloj conectado al dispositivo electronico y que el dispositivo electronico este tambien configurado para transmitir ademas datos temporales vinculados a los datos identificativos de usuario. Esto permitira un registro mas preciso del momento en el que se ha realizado cada dispensacion a cada usuario individual. Esta realization permitiria que el dispensador almacenara los datos junto con el registro temporal, permitiendo enviar los datos al dispositivo de computacion en momentosIt is proposed that the dispenser may also include a clock connected to the electronic device and that the electronic device is also configured to also transmit temporary data linked to the user identification data. This will allow a more accurate record of the time at which each dispensation has been made to each individual user. This realization would allow the dispenser to store the data along with the temporary record, allowing the data to be sent to the computing device at times

distintos al momento de dispensation, consiguiendo as^ reducir el consumo electrico del dispositivo haciendo dicha comunicacion solo cada cierto tiempo.different at the time of dispensation, thus reducing the electrical consumption of the device by making said communication only every so often.

Segun otra realization el dispensador esta anclado en una position fisica, y los datos identificativos del dispensador estan vinculados a datos relativos a dicha posicion fisica del dispensador, por ejemplo mediante una base de datos que relaciona ambos parametros, pudiendo estar dicha base de datos almacenada en el dispositivo de computation, permitiendo de este modo vincular los datos de usuario transmitidos por dicho dispensador con la citada posicion fisica del dispensador. Es decir que el sistema puede conocer la posicion de cada dispensador individual mediante un registro almacenado en su memoria, y cuando se recibe una information relativa a una dispensacion de gel desinfectante realizada por un dispensador individual a un usuario concreto, el sistema conoce tambien la posicion fisica en la que se ha realizado dicha dispensacion. Esto permite por ejemplo conocer si un usuario se higieniza correctamente al acceder a una zona que requiera de dicha desinfeccion, como una habitacion de un paciente, un quirofano, etc.According to another embodiment, the dispenser is anchored in a physical position, and the identifier data of the dispenser is linked to data related to said physical position of the dispenser, for example by means of a database that relates both parameters, said database being able to be stored in the computation device, thereby allowing the user data transmitted by said dispenser to be linked to said physical position of the dispenser. In other words, the system can know the position of each individual dispenser by means of a register stored in its memory, and when information is received regarding a disinfectant gel dispensing made by an individual dispenser to a specific user, the system also knows the position physics in which said dispensation has been made. This allows for example to know if a user is properly sanitized when accessing an area that requires such disinfection, such as a patient's room, an operating room, etc.

Segun una realizacion alternativa se propone que el dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario pueda ser un detector biometrico con un lector de huellas dactilares que integre una superficie de escaneo dactilar; o un dispositivo de reconocimiento facial, de reconocimiento de la forma de la retina o del iris; o un dispositivo de reconocimiento de la geometria de la mano, o un dispositivo de reconocimiento de voz.According to an alternative embodiment it is proposed that the user recognition device may be a biometric detector with a fingerprint reader that integrates a fingerprint scanning surface; or a device for facial recognition, recognition of the shape of the retina or iris; or a hand geometry recognition device, or a voice recognition device.

En el primer caso del dispositivo lector de huellas dactilares el usuario deberia colocar un dedo sobre dicha superficie de escaneo dactilar para identificarse, detectandose las formas identificativas de su huella dactilar.In the first case of the fingerprint reader device, the user should place a finger on said fingerprint surface to identify himself, detecting the identifying forms of his fingerprint.

En el segundo ejemplo, relativo a un dispositivo de reconocimiento facial o de retina o de iris seria suficiente con que el usuario se colocara frente al dispensador, detectandose por ejemplo mediante una camara integrada en el dispensador una imagen de la cara o del ojo del usuario que, tras su analisis, permitiria identificar dicho usuario a partir de la forma, posicion y tamano los elementos distintivos de la parte de la anatomia analizada.In the second example, relative to a facial or retinal or iris recognition device, it would be sufficient for the user to stand in front of the dispenser, for example, by means of a camera integrated in the dispenser, an image of the user's face or eye which, after its analysis, would allow the user to be identified based on the shape, position and size of the distinctive elements of the part of the analyzed anatomy.

En el tercer ejemplo de un dispositivo de reconocimiento de la geometria de la mano del usuario seria suficiente que el usuario colocara una mano bajo el dispensador, estando una camara u otro sensor de dicho dispensador enfocada hacia esa zona, capturando una imagen o informacion relativa a la geometria de la mano que, mediante su analisis, permitiera identificar al usuario mediante la medicion del tamano, grosor, proporciones, etc. de los dedos, la palma o sus articulaciones. En este ultimo ejemplo la camara o sensorIn the third example of a device for recognizing the geometry of the user's hand it would be sufficient for the user to place a hand under the dispenser, a camera or other sensor of said dispenser being focused towards that area, capturing an image or information related to the geometry of the hand that, through its analysis, allowed the user to be identified by measuring the size, thickness, proportions, etc. of the fingers, the palm or its joints. In this last example the camera or sensor

puede estar adyacente a la boquilla dispensadora, de modo que la posicion de la mano para la identification biometrica y para la reception de la dosificacion del gel desinfectante sea la misma.it may be adjacent to the dispensing nozzle, so that the position of the hand for biometric identification and for the reception of the disinfectant gel dosage is the same.

Por ultimo en una cuarta realization un dispositivo de reconocimiento de voz, que integrara un microfono, permitira al dispensador detectar la voz del usuario y, mediante su analisis, determinar la identidad del usuario.Finally, in a fourth embodiment, a voice recognition device, which will integrate a microphone, will allow the dispenser to detect the user's voice and, through analysis, determine the user's identity.

Tambien se preve que el usuario sea portador de un dispositivo identificador que emita una senal identificativa al estar en proximidad de un dispensador, el cual en tal caso dispondra de una antena adaptada a este fin. Dicho dispositivo identificativo puede ser tanto un emisor activo como un dispositivo emisor pasivo que interactue con ciertas senales en proximidad de la fuente emisora de las mismas.It is also envisioned that the user bears an identifying device that emits an identifying signal when being in close proximity to a dispenser, which in such case will have an antenna adapted for this purpose. Said identifying device may be both an active transmitter and a passive transmitter device that interacts with certain signals in proximity to the source of the same.

Se propone que el dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario pueda ser un dispositivo identificador seleccionado entre un lector de tarjetas identificativas, ya sea tarjetas magneticas, de contacto, de proximidad, RFID, mediante lectura de codigo como codigo de barras o QR, mediante un detector de proximidad de tarjetas, chips o antenas personales identificativos, como tarjeta EM, tarjetas de tecnologia Mifare, u otras tecnologias presentes o futuras que puedan estar disponibles en el mercado para la identificacion de personas. Se contempla tambien la identificacion mediante un teclado de insertion de codigo identificativo personal, que permita al usuario identificarse a si mismo mediante la insercion de un codigo personal identificativo mediante la utilization de dicho teclado.It is proposed that the user recognition device can be an identifier device selected from an identification card reader, be it magnetic, contact, proximity, RFID cards, by reading code such as barcode or QR, by means of a detector proximity of personal identification cards, chips or antennas, such as EM card, Mifare technology cards, or other present or future technologies that may be available in the market for the identification of people. Identification is also contemplated by means of a personal identification code insertion keyboard, which allows the user to identify himself by inserting a personal identification code by using said keyboard.

La information obtenida a traves de dicho dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario sera transmitida mediante un dispositivo comunicador conectado a dicho dispositivo electronico. Preferiblemente dicho dispositivo comunicador sera un dispositivo comunicador inalambrico, como por ejemplo un dispositivo basado en el protocolo WIFI, Bluetooth, u otra senal de radiofrecuencia. Los datos emitidos seran captados por un dispositivo de computation que centraliza toda la informacion emitida por multiples dispensadores distribuidos por un recinto hospitalario, sanitario o geriatrico por ejemplo. Se entendera que el dispositivo de computacion sera preferiblemente un ordenador o controlador logico programable.The information obtained through said user recognition device will be transmitted by a communicating device connected to said electronic device. Preferably said communicating device will be a wireless communicating device, such as a device based on the WIFI protocol, Bluetooth, or other radio frequency signal. The emitted data will be captured by a computing device that centralizes all the information issued by multiple dispensers distributed by a hospital, health or geriatric facility for example. It will be understood that the computing device will preferably be a computer or programmable logic controller.

Esto permite tener un registro centralizado del uso que cada usuario registrado hace de cada dispensador, y permite tambien integrar una red de dispensadores centralizando toda la informacion y realizando estadisticas y un control. Esto puede ser especialmente util en centros hospitalarios donde un ordenador central puede contener un registro de todo el personal medico y de los pacientes asignados a cada una de las personas que integran elThis allows to have a centralized registry of the use that each registered user makes of each dispenser, and also allows to integrate a network of dispensers centralizing all the information and performing statistics and a control. This can be especially useful in hospital centers where a central computer can contain a record of all medical personnel and patients assigned to each of the people who make up the hospital.

personal medico, permitiendo asi que multiples dispensadores de gel desinfectante instalados en el centro hospitalario alimenten dicho ordenador con datos referentes a que usuario utiliza que dispensador de gel desinfectante y cuando lo utiliza, permitiendo asi comprobar si se cumplen correctamente los protocolos de desinfeccion del personal registrado, y permitiendo detectar disfunciones e introducir mejoras.medical personnel, thus allowing multiple disinfectant gel dispensers installed in the hospital center to feed said computer with data regarding the user who uses the disinfectant gel dispenser and when using it, thus allowing to verify if the disinfection protocols of registered personnel are correctly complied with , and allowing to detect dysfunctions and introduce improvements.

Evidentemente el dispositivo de computation tambien puede emitir senales hacia los dispensadores, como por ejemplo una senal relativa a los usuarios que estan registrados en el sistema, o los que pueden o no pueden recibir una dispensation de gel desinfectante.Obviously, the computation device can also emit signals to the dispensers, such as a signal related to users who are registered in the system, or those who may or may not receive a disinfectant gel dispensation.

Segun otra realization preferida el dispositivo dispensador incluye ademas una bateria que alimenta al menos dicho dispositivo electronico, dicho dispositivo de reconocimiento y dicho dispositivo comunicador. Esto permite que el dispensador sea autonomo y pueda ser instalado en cualquier parte sin requerir de instalacion electrica de suministro. En tal caso la bateria deberia ser recargada o sustituida periodicamente, al igual que el gel desinfectante del deposito. Preferiblemente cuando la citada bateria este proxima a agotarse el dispensador emitira una senal de advertencia, ya sea a traves del dispositivo comunicador, ya sea mediante un indicador luminoso integrado en el propio dispensador.According to another preferred embodiment, the dispensing device also includes a battery that powers at least said electronic device, said recognition device and said communicating device. This allows the dispenser to be autonomous and can be installed anywhere without requiring electrical supply installation. In this case, the battery should be recharged or replaced periodically, just like the disinfectant gel in the tank. Preferably, when said battery is close to being depleted, the dispenser will emit a warning signal, either through the communicating device, or by means of a light indicator integrated in the dispenser itself.

El dispensador puede disponer, de acuerdo con otra realizacion, de dos depositos de gel desinfectante y puede estar configurado para que cuando uno de los depositos se agote el dispositivo electronico genere una senal de aviso y se inicie la dispensacion desde el otro deposito.The dispenser may have, according to another embodiment, two deposits of disinfectant gel and may be configured so that when one of the deposits is depleted the electronic device generates a warning signal and the dispensation is initiated from the other deposit.

La senal de aviso puede ser por ejemplo una senal lummica emitida por un led integrado en el dispensador y/o una senal acustica emitida por un dispositivo emisor de sonido integrado en el dispensador y/o una senal de information emitida por el dispositivo comunicador para ser comunicado al dispositivo computacional.The warning signal can be, for example, a light signal emitted by a led integrated in the dispenser and / or an acoustic signal emitted by a sound emitting device integrated in the dispenser and / or an information signal emitted by the communicating device to be communicated to the computing device.

El dispensador puede incluir ademas un detector de proximidad adyacente a la boquilla dispensadora para la detection de la presencia de las manos de un usuario frente a dicha boquilla dispensadora, y donde el dispositivo electronico esta conectado a dicho detector de proximidad y configurado para no activar el dispositivo accionador hasta que no se produzca una deteccion por parte de dicho detector de proximidad.The dispenser may also include a proximity detector adjacent to the dispensing nozzle for the detection of the presence of a user's hands in front of said dispensing nozzle, and where the electronic device is connected to said proximity detector and configured not to activate the actuator device until there is no detection by said proximity detector.

Segun este ejemplo un usuario puede identificarse frente al dispensador y, una vez obtenida una identification positiva, que puede indicarse por ejemplo mediante un indicador luminoso y/o sonoro, proceder a colocar las manos frente a la boquilla dispensadora siendo dichas manos detectadas por el detector de proximidad y procediendo entonces a suministrar laAccording to this example, a user can identify himself in front of the dispenser and, once a positive identification has been obtained, which can be indicated, for example, by a light and / or sound indicator, proceed to place the hands in front of the dispensing nozzle, said hands being detected by the detector of proximity and then proceeding to supply the

dosis de gel desinfectante evitando la dispensation del gel desinfectante en ausencia de las manos del usuario. Segun esta realization el dispositivo accionador incluira un motor controlado por el dispositivo electronico para una dispensacion automatica del gel desinfectante.Disinfectant gel dose avoiding the dispensation of the disinfectant gel in the absence of the user's hands. According to this embodiment, the actuator device will include a motor controlled by the electronic device for automatic dispensing of the disinfectant gel.

Segun una realizacion adicional el dispositivo accionador es un pulsador o palanca accesible desde el exterior del dispensador automatico mecanicamente conectado a dicho dispositivo dosificador, produciendose la dispensacion como consecuencia del accionamiento de dicho pulsador o palanca. En una realizacion se contempla que dicho pulsador integre el dispositivo lector de huellas dactilares, de modo que a la vez que el usuario pulsa dicho pulsador se realiza su identificacion.According to a further embodiment, the actuator device is a push button or lever accessible from outside the automatic dispenser mechanically connected to said dosing device, the dispensing being produced as a result of the actuation of said push button or lever. In one embodiment it is contemplated that said push button integrates the fingerprint reader device, so that at the same time that the user presses said push button their identification is made.

Opcionalmente el dispositivo electronico puede estar conectado a un mecanismo de bloqueo y configurado para bloquear y/o desbloquear el dispositivo accionador dependiendo de la informacion obtenida a traves del dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario.Optionally, the electronic device may be connected to a locking mechanism and configured to lock and / or unlock the actuator device depending on the information obtained through the user recognition device.

Es decir que el dispensador incluye un pulsador o palanca que, mediante su accionamiento, acciona el dispositivo dosificador produciendo el suministro de una dosis de gel dosificador por action del movimiento de dicho pulsador o palanca al que esta mecanicamente conectado, de modo que la dispensacion no requeriria de ningun motor ni el consumo de energia electrica para producirse. Sin embargo para evitar que un usuario se procure una dosis de gel desinfectante sin antes identificarse el dispositivo de reconocimiento estaria conectado a un mecanismo de bloqueo que interfiere con dicho pulsador o palanca, o con su conexion mecanica con el dispositivo dosificador, de modo que el accionamiento del pulsador o palanca solo es posible o solo se transmite al dispositivo dosificador tras la correcta identification del usuario mediante el sensor biometrico, que activa el mecanismo de bloqueo liberando dicho bloqueo. Esta solution requeriria menor consumo energetico, facilitando su instalacion autonoma, y abarataria su coste al no requerir de un motor para el suministro de la dosis de gel desinfectante.That is to say, the dispenser includes a push-button or lever which, by means of its actuation, activates the dosing device producing the supply of a dose of dosing gel per action of the movement of said push-button or lever to which it is mechanically connected, so that the dispensing does not It would require no motor or electric power consumption to be produced. However, in order to prevent a user from attempting a dose of disinfectant gel without first identifying the recognition device, it would be connected to a locking mechanism that interferes with said push button or lever, or with its mechanical connection with the dosing device, so that the Push button or lever operation is only possible or is only transmitted to the dosing device after the correct identification of the user by means of the biometric sensor, which activates the locking mechanism releasing said lock. This solution would require less energy consumption, facilitating its autonomous installation, and lowering its cost by not requiring an engine to supply the dose of disinfectant gel.

Otra realizacion planteada contempla que el dispensador incluya un emisor de information seleccionado entre una pantalla y/o un altavoz. Dicho emisor de informacion estaria en comunicacion con el dispositivo de computation a traves del dispositivo comunicador y controlado por el dispositivo electronico, el cual estaria configurado para emitir, a traves del emisor de informacion, informacion relacionada con el usuario identificado mediante el dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario recibida a traves del dispositivo comunicador.Another proposed embodiment contemplates that the dispenser includes a transmitter of information selected between a screen and / or a speaker. Said issuer of information would be in communication with the computing device through the communicating device and controlled by the electronic device, which would be configured to issue, through the issuer of information, information related to the user identified by the recognition device User received through the communicating device.

Es decir que, tras la identification del usuario el dispensador podria emitir information visual o auditiva que resulte de interes al citado usuario identificado a traves del emisor de informacion. Dicha informacion relevante seria enviada desde el dispositivo de computation que podria contener una base de datos de la que extraer la informacion relevante para un usuario concreto. Por ejemplo dicha informacion podria ser, en el caso del uso hospitalario del dispensador propuesto, informacion relevante para un medico concreto identificado por el dispensador, y del que se conoce la localization concreta relacionada con la localization del dispensador, por ejemplo una habitation de un paciente. Esta base de datos permitiria por lo tanto que el dispositivo de computacion, al recibir la identificacion de un medico emplazado en una habitacion, le transmita informacion importante relacionada con el paciente que ocupa dicha habitacion, como por ejemplo informacion relativa a la medication, a eventos recientes relacionados con dicho paciente, a alergias, a tratamientos a practicarle, recordatorios, etc. Evidentemente dicha informacion estaria adaptada al usuario identificado, ya que no seria la misma informacion la mostrada a un medico que a un auxiliar de enfermeria, o a un paciente.In other words, after the identification of the user, the dispenser could issue visual or auditory information that is of interest to said user identified through the issuer of information. Said relevant information would be sent from the computing device that could contain a database from which to extract the relevant information for a specific user. For example, such information could be, in the case of the hospital use of the proposed dispenser, relevant information for a specific physician identified by the dispenser, and of which the specific location related to the location of the dispenser is known, for example a patient's room . This database would therefore allow the computer device, upon receiving the identification of a doctor located in a room, to transmit important information related to the patient occupying that room, such as information related to medication, to events Recent related to said patient, allergies, treatments to be practiced, reminders, etc. Obviously this information would be adapted to the identified user, since the information shown to a doctor would not be the same information as a nursing assistant, or a patient.

Dicha informacion podria ser transmitida de forma visual a traves de una pantalla, o de forma auditiva a traves de un altavoz.Such information could be transmitted visually through a screen, or auditively through a speaker.

Se entendera que, a pesar de estar descrita la invention como aplicada a la dispensation de gel desinfectante, otras aplicaciones equivalentes estaran tambien protegidas por el presente documento. Por ejemplo para la dispensacion de otras sustancias liquidas, como bebidas de cualquier tipo, medicamentos, o incluso suministros hospitalarios no liquidos, como gasas u otros.It will be understood that, despite the invention being described as applied to the disinfectant gel dispensation, other equivalent applications will also be protected herein. For example for the dispensing of other liquid substances, such as beverages of any kind, medications, or even non-liquid hospital supplies, such as gauze or others.

Description detallada de un ejemplo de realizacionDetailed description of an embodiment example

Las figuras adjuntas muestran ejemplos de realizacion con caracter ilustrativo no limitativo de la presente invencion.The attached figures show exemplary embodiments with an illustrative non-limiting character of the present invention.

La presente invention concierne, de acuerdo con una primera realizacion preferida mostrada en la Fig. 1, a un dispensador inteligente de gel desinfectante que integra, dentro de una carcasa fijada a una pared, uno deposito 1 de gel desinfectante conectado a un dispositivo dosificador 3 que a su vez esta conectado a una boquilla dispensadora 2.The present invention concerns, according to a first preferred embodiment shown in Fig. 1, an intelligent disinfectant gel dispenser that integrates, within a housing fixed to a wall, a reservoir 1 of disinfectant gel connected to a metering device 3 which in turn is connected to a dispensing nozzle 2.

En esta realizacion el dispositivo dosificador 3 consta de una cavidad con una capacidad equivalente a la cantidad de gel desinfectante a dispensar en una dosis, estando dicha cavidad acoplada a un embolo que puede deslizarse dentro de dicha cavidad reduciendo su volumen expulsando el gel desinfectante contendido en su interior.In this embodiment the dosing device 3 consists of a cavity with a capacity equivalent to the amount of disinfectant gel to be dispensed in a dose, said cavity being coupled to a plunger that can slide into said cavity reducing its volume by expelling the disinfectant gel contained in its interior.

El embolo del dispositivo dosificador 3 esta conectado a un dispositivo accionador 4, que en esta realizacion es un dispositivo accionador automatico formado por un motor electrico o servomotor que acciona un mecanismo que desplaza el citado embolo, en este caso y solo a modo de ejemplo no limitativo, mediante un pinon engranado a una barra dentada conectada al embolo. Como resultara obvio muchas otras realizaciones distintas del mencionado mecanismo pueden ser alcanzadas por un experto sin que ello modifique en lo esencial la invencion.The plunger of the dosing device 3 is connected to an actuator device 4, which in this embodiment is an automatic actuator device formed by an electric motor or servo motor that drives a mechanism that displaces said plunger, in this case and only by way of example not limiting, by means of a pinion meshed to a toothed bar connected to the plunger. As it will be obvious, many other embodiments other than the mentioned mechanism can be achieved by an expert without essentially modifying the invention.

El desplazamiento del embolo en una direction ampliara el tamano de la cavidad y, con la ayuda de la gravedad, introducira una cantidad de gel desinfectante dentro de la misma desde el deposito 1 situado por encima de la citada cavidad y conectada a la misma por un conducto. El gel desinfectante se mantendra dentro de la cavidad del dispositivo dosificador 3 hasta que el dispositivo accionador 4 se accione desplazando el embolo y provocando la expulsion del gel desinfectante por la boquilla dispensadora 2. La densidad del citado gel desinfectante puede impedir que el citado gel desinfectante salga por la boquilla dispensadora 2 en ausencia de activation del dispositivo accionador 4, y la gravedad puedeThe displacement of the embolus in one direction will extend the size of the cavity and, with the help of gravity, will introduce an amount of disinfectant gel into it from the reservoir 1 located above the said cavity and connected thereto by a conduit. The disinfectant gel will be kept inside the cavity of the dosing device 3 until the actuator device 4 is activated by displacing the plunger and causing the disinfection gel to be ejected by the dispensing nozzle 2. The density of said disinfectant gel can prevent said disinfectant gel exit through the dispensing nozzle 2 in the absence of activation of the actuator device 4, and gravity can

impedir que el gel desinfectante del dispositivo dosificador 3 vuelva a introducirse dentro del deposito 1, sin embargo se contempla la posibilidad de incluir valvulas anti-retorno, o valvulas elasticas que impidan una circulation del gel desinfectantes no deseada, asi como la entrada de aire exterior a traves de la boquilla dispensadora 2.to prevent the disinfectant gel from the dosing device 3 from re-entering into the reservoir 1, however the possibility of including non-return valves, or elastic valves that prevent undesired disinfectant gel circulation, as well as the outside air intake, is contemplated through the dispensing nozzle 2.

Como resultara obvia muchas otras realizaciones del dispositivo dosificador 3 distintas a la aqu descrita son posibles, como por ejemplo las descritas en otras partes de esta solicitud, o muchas otras, sin que ello modifique en lo esencial la invention propuesta.As it will be obvious many other embodiments of the dosing device 3 other than the one described here are possible, such as those described in other parts of this application, or many others, without this essentially modifying the proposed invention.

El dispensador propuesto incluye ademas un dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario 5, que en este ejemplo consta de una camara dirigida hacia una zona donde se espera la presencia de la cara de un usuario. Dicha camara forma parte de un detector biometrico que captura una imagen de la cara del usuario y la suministra a un dispositivo electronico 7 tambien integrado en el dispensador.The proposed dispenser also includes a user recognition device 5, which in this example consists of a camera directed towards an area where the presence of a user's face is expected. Said camera is part of a biometric detector that captures an image of the user's face and supplies it to an electronic device 7 also integrated in the dispenser.

Segun una realization la imagen capturada puede ser analizada mediante un algoritmo de reconocimiento de patrones que permita identificar al usuario que aparece en la imagen, siendo dicho analisis ejecutado mediante dicho dispositivo electronico 7 y generando unos datos identificativos del usuario. Preferiblemente el dispensador emitira una senal acustica o lummica si el proceso de identification se ha producido correctamente.According to one realization, the captured image can be analyzed by means of a pattern recognition algorithm that allows identifying the user that appears in the image, said analysis being executed by means of said electronic device 7 and generating user identification data. Preferably the dispenser will emit an acoustic or luminous signal if the identification process has been successful.

Posteriormente dichos datos identificativos pueden ser emitidos, junto con datos identificativos del dispensador almacenados en el dispositivo electronico 7, mediante un dispositivo comunicador 6 tambien conectado al dispositivo electronico 7, siendo dichos datos enviados capturados por un dispositivo de computation 10 remoto que en este caso se propone que sea un ordenador donde pueden ser almacenados y analizados.Subsequently, said identifying data may be issued, together with identifying data of the dispenser stored in the electronic device 7, by means of a communicating device 6 also connected to the electronic device 7, said data being sent captured by a remote computing device 10 which in this case is It proposes that it be a computer where they can be stored and analyzed.

Alternativamente el dispositivo electronico 7 puede enviar directamente la imagen capturada como datos identificativos tambien junto con los datos identificativos del dispensador, de modo que dichos datos sean capturados por el dispositivo de computacion 10, el cual podria analizar la imagen recibida mediante un algoritmo de reconocimiento de patrones y realizar la identificacion del usuario mostrado en la imagen. Opcionalmente el dispositivo de computacion 10 podra enviar una senal al dispensador para notificar si la identificacion ha sido correctamente efectuada, de modo que este pueda mostrar una senal, por ejemplo lummica o acustica, para que el usuario tenga la certeza que ha sido correctamente identificado.Alternatively, the electronic device 7 can directly send the captured image as identifying data also together with the identifying data of the dispenser, so that said data is captured by the computing device 10, which could analyze the received image by means of a recognition algorithm. patterns and perform the identification of the user shown in the image. Optionally, the computing device 10 may send a signal to the dispenser to notify if the identification has been correctly carried out, so that it can show a signal, for example light or acoustic, so that the user has the certainty that it has been correctly identified.

El dispositivo comunicador 6 sera preferiblemente un emisor de senal de radiofrecuencia como por ejemplo una senal segun protocolo WIFI o Bluetooth, o cualquier otra tecnologia presente o futura que pueda estar disponible para la comunicacion de datos.The communicating device 6 will preferably be a radio frequency signal emitter such as a signal according to WIFI or Bluetooth protocol, or any other present or future technology that may be available for data communication.

Segun una segunda realizacion mostrada en la Fig. 2 el dispositivo dosificador es igual al descrito en relacion a la primera realizacion, pero esta conectado a dos depositos 1 independientes mediante unos conductos que incluyen cada uno una valvula controlada a traves del dispositivo electronico 7. Esto permite que dicho dispositivo electronico 7 conecte el dispositivo dosificador 3 con uno o con otro depositos 1 segun cual este lleno y cual vado. La deteccion del vaciado del deposito puede lograrse de muy distintas formas, desde contando las dispensaciones realizadas desde cada deposito, o mediante sensores como celulas fotosensibles, sensores de peso, etc a modo de detectores de vaciado.According to a second embodiment shown in Fig. 2, the dosing device is the same as described in relation to the first embodiment, but is connected to two independent tanks 1 by means of conduits each including a controlled valve through the electronic device 7. This it allows said electronic device 7 to connect the dosing device 3 with one or another tank 1 according to which one is full and which is empty. The detection of the emptying of the deposit can be achieved in very different ways, from counting the dispensations made from each deposit, or by means of sensors such as photosensitive cells, weight sensors, etc. by way of emptying detectors.

Cuando el dispositivo electronico 7 determina que un deposito 1 esta vado desconectar ese deposito del dispositivo dosificador 3, y a conectar el otro deposito 1 al citado dispositivo dosificador 3 mediante el control de las valvulas antes descritas.When the electronic device 7 determines that a tank 1 is forbidden to disconnect that tank from the dosing device 3, and to connect the other tank 1 to said dosing device 3 by controlling the valves described above.

En esta segunda realizacion se contempla ademas que el dispositivo accionador 4 no sea automatico, sino que sea manual mediante un pulsador conectado al embolo del dispositivo dosificador 3. Dicho pulsador podra ser presionado en cualquier momento por un usuario, este este identificado o no, produciendose una dosificacion. Sin embargo se propone que el propio pulsador pueda integrar un dispositivo lector de huellas dactilares a modo de dispositivo de reconocimiento de usuario 5, de modo que a la vez que se pulsa por parte de un usuario se pueda producir la lectura de su huella dactilar.In this second embodiment, it is further contemplated that the actuator device 4 is not automatic, but that it is manual by means of a button connected to the plunger of the dosing device 3. Said button may be pressed at any time by a user, whether or not it is identified, occurring A dosage. However, it is proposed that the button itself can integrate a fingerprint reader device as a user recognition device 5, so that at the same time it is pressed by a user, the reading of its fingerprint can occur.

Los datos obtenidos son transmitidos al dispositivo electronico 7 que puede realizar el analisis de dichos datos para realizar la identificacion del usuario, generando una informacion que, junto con los datos identificativos del dosificador, sera transmitida por parte de un dispositivo comunicador 6 como el descrito en relacion a la primera realizacion.The data obtained is transmitted to the electronic device 7 that can perform the analysis of said data to perform the identification of the user, generating information that, together with the identifying data of the doser, will be transmitted by a communicating device 6 as described in relation to the first realization.

Alternativamente los datos proporcionados por el dispositivo lector de huellas dactilares pueden ser enviados sin analizar a traves tambien del dispositivo comunicador 6, junto a los datos identificativos del dispensador, realizandose su analisis en un dispositivo de computacion 10 remoto que reciba dichos datos.Alternatively, the data provided by the fingerprint reader device can be sent without analyzing also through the communicating device 6, together with the identifying data of the dispenser, its analysis being performed on a remote computing device 10 that receives said data.

En cualquier caso, tanto la primera como la segunda realizaciones permiten que un dispositivo de computacion 10 remoto conozca cuantas veces un usuario determinado ha utilizado un dosificador concreto. Si se incorpora ademas un reloj, ya sea en el dispensador o en el dispositivo de computacion remoto, se puede determinar tambien en que momentosIn any case, both the first and second embodiments allow a remote computing device 10 to know how many times a particular user has used a specific doser. If a clock is also incorporated, either in the dispenser or in the remote computing device, it can also be determined at what times

se han producido dichas dispensaciones. Esto, junto con los datos identificativos del dispensador, permite integrar una pluralidad de dichos dispensadores dentro de un recinto constituyendo un sistema de monitorizacion de habitos de desinfeccion de los usuarios.such dispensations have occurred. This, together with the identification data of the dispenser, allows a plurality of said dispensers to be integrated into an enclosure, constituting a system for monitoring user disinfection habits.

Dicho sistema permitira obtener estad^sticas y hacer un seguimiento del cumplimiento de los 5 protocolos de desinfeccion por parte de cada uno de los miembros individuales del personal de un centro, lo que permite detectar malos habitos y corregirlos antes de que se produzcan infecciones indeseadas.This system will allow obtaining statistics and monitoring compliance with the 5 disinfection protocols by each of the individual staff members of a center, which allows detecting bad habits and correcting them before unwanted infections occur.

Se entendera que las diferentes partes que constituyen la invencion descritas en una realization pueden ser libremente combinadas con las partes descritas en otras 10 realizaciones distintas aunque no se haya descrito dicha combination de forma explicita, siempre que no exista un perjuicio en la combinacion.It will be understood that the different parts that constitute the invention described in one embodiment can be freely combined with the parts described in other different embodiments although said combination has not been explicitly described, provided there is no harm in the combination.
